This could be the future face of York city centre after a £60 million extension to the Coppergate Centre. The large-scale model has gone on display at the Guildhall as part of a major public consultation exercise launched yesterday by City of York Council.

The council wants to know what residents think of Land Securities' proposed development, which includes a huge new Debenhams department store, before members determine a planning application this summer.

The exhibition is open tonight until 8pm, and tomorrow from 10am to 8pm. It will be held from 10am to 6pm on Friday and Saturday in St Sampson's Square.
